Jingjing: So, what do you have planned for the day?
京晶:你今天有什么计划?
Mark: I think I'm gonna hit the stores.
马克:我想去商店。
Jingjing: Are you freaking out about your summer shopping? Chill, you still have several weeks left.
京晶:你是在担心你的夏日大采购吧?放心,你还有几个星期呢。
Mark: Well, actually, I need to buy loads of short sleeve shirts. It's not chilly any longer in Beijing.

Jingjing: So, you mean, you're not going to buy anyone gifts? I've done some shopping for people's birthdays and whatnot.
京晶:所以你的意思是,你就不买些礼物了?我已经开始给别人的生日等诸如此类的事采购礼物了。

马克:不要臆断哦,我可从来没有说过这样的话。我是个很大方的人,我看到一些东西觉得别人可能喜欢我就会买。再过几周可就酷热难当了,再说我也需要一些衣服。

京晶和马克在咖啡厅聊天
Jingjing: So, how'd it go, Mark?
京晶:(采购进行得)怎么样了,马克?
Mark: It went really well. I found some good deals on shirts, and didn't buy too many. I had the tailor take some of my long-sleeve shirts and turn them into short-sleeve shirts.
马克:不错哦。买了一些还不错的衬衫,也没买太多。我让裁缝拿了些我的长袖衬衫把它们改成短袖的了。
Jingjing: Do they look okay?
京晶:那看着还行吗?
Mark: Yeah! It's a good way to extend the life of my clothes. I had a Kodak moment trying the stuff on, and posted the photos on WeChat.

京晶:我还以为你不会给任何人买礼物呢!(你原来还想着我哪)你真不错。
